--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <[email protected]> ---
The conjoined button in the System Settings sidebar is custom; extending this
UX to KCMs would entail implementing it in Kirigami; moving there.

However I'm not sure it would be a good idea. Frankly I'm not sure the existing
instance of this in System Settings was a good idea (I say this as the person
who implemented it).

The problem is that the law of proximity visually connects the page title to
the back button; putting them both in the same clickable button would reinforce
that even more. But this is confusing because the page title is for the
*current* page while the back button takes you to the *previous* page!

Ideally the back button would share a clickable frame with a label that tells
you which page you'll be taken back to, not the name of the current page.

But the whole idea of left-aligned page titles makes this virtually impossible.
To improve on the situation there I think we'd need a fundamental re-think of
how page titles work in Kirigami.
